Jenifer Howard was the resident expert at 341 Studio's Fresh Intelligence breakfast event this morning. The subject was online PR, at which Jenifer is an expert. While she covered the gamut of online resources and outlets, she spent a great deal of time on twitter....
Although I'd never heard the expression, "open the kimono" before, I got its meaning the second my coaching buddy spoke those words during our conversation a few years ago. He was about to reveal a bit of closely-guarded information, and I was being alerted to that...
I followed a link from my online reading of the NYTimes yesterday to a website called hippopota.com. The Home Section had featured Christian Jaillite's photo (left) of a child's stuffed hippo toy in its Kids column. It made me want to learn more. I was awed by the...
